It's over. Not immediately unfortunately, but in 2009 the ginger overlord will finally stop making shit music. "I've kind of decided that the 25 years is going to be enough," he says. I couldn't agree more.
In honour of this momentous occasion, here's two of the rabbit-lover's greatest hits:
Bunny's too tight to mention
Holding back the ears
A well reported fact is that Mick Hucknall was one of thirty-odd people who saw the Sex Pistols play in the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester in 1976 - widely regarded as the most influential British gig of all time. That group of onlookers were so inspired that Joy Division, The Fall, The Smiths and The Buzzcocks were formed. Oh yeah, and the little know record company Factory Records.
To think that fuckwit was there too and somehow thought "saxophones, old style R&B and crooning, that's the future". Why couldn't he have caught a cold or got food poisoning and not went, and not thought about music, and instead stayed in his shitty little house in Denton (part of Manchester) and kept his shitty little lyrics to himself?
Ironic for Hucknall to come from Denton, as it was originally a significant centre for hat manufacturing...
